Anti-Choice Morons

President Bush has firmly said that he will veto measures that "allow taxpayer dollars to be used for the destruction of human life."  That same NYT article has the director of the legislative division of National Right to Life calling that a bright-line stance.  Setting aside the misuse of Justice Scalia's oft-repeated and never meant legal phraseology, is this a "bright-line" stance under the plain meaning of that phrase?  No, it is clearly not.  Most of the debate about Choice is about when life begins and protections for mothers' health.  So, the question is not really should we stop the destruction of human life?  Rather, we should ask when does life begin?  For President Bush and the director of NRL, this is not even a question, but for the rest of us, it is.  This is not a clear statement, but one that requires a boat-load of context.

If it truly goes against his core beliefs to allow taxpayer dollars to be used for the destruction of human life, then I guess we are getting out of the war business as well.  I am encouraged!

Unfortunately, President Bush's "bright-line" definition of pro-life doesn't include pro-living.

It would be too logical.  ;)

I suppose this means no more capitol punishment as well then, eh?
